Life Coach for Men

Be the Man
You Want to Be

Men’s Life Coaching

I’m Wayne M. Levine, men’s life coach, author and founder of BetterMen Coaching. Let me describe the man who, experience has shown, is best suited for my coaching style.

You’re probably 40s to 60s. Dad, married or maybe married a couple of times, or dealing with the stages of divorce. You’ve been successful with career or business but not so much with relationships. You’re in transition and feeling a little untethered, lost or lonely. You have women friends but not close, trusting relationships with men where you feel free to tell the truth without judgment.

You’ve already done some work trying to figure out what makes you tick. You’ve either done some therapy, reading, meditation, retreats, grief work, plant medicine, deep introspection, writing, or some combination of the above. And, you are absolutely ready and committed to making important changes in you and your relationships. Those relationships might include your significant other, kids, parents, yourself, ego, money and the world around you.

Start Your Journey

In short, we wouldn’t be starting from scratch. That just wouldn’t be a good use of my experience, or of your time and money.

Or, you’ve simply come to a moment in your life when the discomfort has grown so unacceptable that you’re absolutely committed to doing whatever it takes to make that important change or changes necessary to be the man you want to be, to live the life you’ve been yearning to live.

There are a few exceptional younger men who can use the guidance of a “father” to help them through some tough times. Some of these men would also benefit from this work. The younger generations are much more in tune with their feelings and intuition. I’ve had some very fulfilling experiences working with these guys.

When I started my practice, there was no such thing as a “life coach for men.” Which is to say, I’ve been at this for a long time. In the almost 30 years I’ve been at this game, I’ve gathered a great deal of wisdom helping hundreds of men: wisdom that you can’t get from books, or seminars or certification programs–real life, mine and the men I’ve worked with in individual coaching, men’s groups and retreats.

If you meet the criteria, and/or have a gut feeling that we ought to work together, then perhaps you’re on the right track. On the other hand, if after reviewing this site you’ve narrowed your search down to five coaches and three coaching programs, well then, I encourage you to move on. If you’re not feeling it, I’m definitely not for you.

You see, my work is driven, primarily, by my intuition. And strengthening your trust in your own intuition is part of the work we would be doing together. It’s a natural outgrowth of my style of coaching. So, trust your intuition right now. If it feels right, and you’re ready to get to work, meaning, you’re ready to push through your fear, doubt, self-loathing, shame or anxiety, then schedule a time to meet with me.

A note about procrastination: you’ve probably been wrestling with asking for help for quite a long time. The pain you’ve experienced is nothing new. At this moment, you’ve never been closer to actually reaching out and getting what you need. A lot of men have ultimately contacted me 10 years after reading my book, two years after carrying my card in their wallet, or way too long after knowing that they were not happy guys. Don’t be one of those men. They lost a lot of years kicking the can down the road. Haven’t you waited long enough?

Kind Words from the Men

Wayne is a knowledgeable and real guy who offers a sympathetic ear, but also a clear voice.

He doesn’t sit back on a couch and lob questions in some kind of one-sided way. Instead, you can have a real conversation with him, as I have for almost two years now in dealing with issues in my life. No doubt, Wayne listens well and knows his stuff, but he a...

Wayne Levine is quite an impressive coach.

He is insightful, brilliant, and also shoots straight from the hip. He has helped me through not just a few jams of my own making. My favorite part of his counsel is that it really helps call me on my own bullshit, helps me see where I am part of the problem, ...

Wayne is a knowledgeable and real guy who offers a sympathetic ear, but also a clear voice.

He doesn’t sit back on a couch and lob questions in some kind of one-sided way. Instead, you can have a real conversation with him, as I have for almost two years now in dealing with issues in my life. No doubt, Wayne listens well and knows his stuff, but he also gives it to you straight—or at least helps you cut through your own crap and get clarity about what matters to you. Wayne has provided invaluable support and practical advice on my journey to becoming a better man.

With his help and guidance, I was able to move through that time positively and set myself up for a great life post crisis. Ten years later, I am still working with Wayne because his business adds value to my life even when I am not in crisis. Working with Wayne was one of the best decisions I made in the past ten years. I would not be where I am today without his help.

… when it comes to how I look at the dynamics of my own life, relationships, and work. Sometimes men can perceive life situations as insurmountable problems. I sure do. We need someone intuitive and wise to help us see the more helpful and expansive perspectives available to us. Wayne makes it simple, because it is quite simple. But it takes help to realize that! Thanks, Wayne.

Wayne Levine is quite an impressive coach.

He is insightful, brilliant, and also shoots straight from the hip. He has helped me through not just a few jams of my own making. My favorite part of his counsel is that it really helps call me on my own bullshit, helps me see where I am part of the problem, and it is always said in a way that helps me see and change those things that maybe served me as a child, but that are no longer needed. He’s part mentor, part friend, with just a sprinkle of ornery to help get under my skin when I need it.  It should also be highlighted: he’s one of the smartest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of getting to know.

If you’re going to pay to talk to someone...

…(which is worth every damn penny when it is someone like Wayne) you want to make sure the person is adept at understanding what you need in the given moment to really help shift your mindset and attitude for the better. Wayne does this so well. He gets you. And he’s onto it sometimes before you even say it, which cuts the fluff and saves your valuable time with him. Experienced. Wise. Kind. Present. No nonsense and loving. What’s not to like in having someone like that be your coach? Wayne is not your flashy “influencer” coach and therapist. He is the real deal. That’s who you want to talk to if you want to improve your life, relationships, and professional path. He’s got no agenda except to faithfully support you.

I came to Wayne in 2010, a completely broken man.

With Wayne’s leadership, guidance, and sharing his real-life experiences, he’s helped me make my life better. I wouldn’t be this far along in my personal and business life if it wasn’t for the work that was encouraged by Wayne and the men of the BetterMen community. Wayne, simply put, I love you. My family and friends all love you because you showed me how to be a better husband, father, brother, and son. You showed me a path of spirituality. Today, I choose to live a life with gratitude, compassion, and self-care. Thank you, my brother.
